Hats Off For Dismissal Of Felony Charges!

I would like to thank Musca Law for their hard work and loyalty to their clients. I was accused of the serious felony of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, and Domestic Violence. The lawyers at the firm worked around the clock to resolve my issue. Today was the answer to prayers when I learned ...all my charges had been dismissed. The team was unbelievable on the execution of the law. I would like to thank the whole law group for their support and resolution on my case. Hats off. I have my life back!

Aggressive, Professional, and Well Prepared For DUI Cases

I can't thank John and his team at Musca Law enough for their aggressive and professional approach to my case. I was arrested and charged with DUI and lost my license. I immediately began researching law firms to represent me, and the focus of this firm on these types of cases, combined with their ag...gressive approach and positive reviews, led me to retain them to represent me. I couldn't have made a better choice!!! Rebecca Sonalia represented me at the DMV hearing and was extremely well-prepared and aggressive in fighting for me, and I am extremely pleased that it resulted in my license being reinstated within one month from the alleged offense. I would strongly urge anyone facing a DUI charge to hire Musca Law. They are the best!!!

Job And Career At Stake, Case Dismissed !!! 

I am a commercial truck driver and I was involved in a rollover accident on a semi truck in Florida. The state trooper who showed up on scene determined I was going too fast on a curve, causing me to rollover. Though I explained the situation, he issued me a careless driving citation. Because of this..., I got laid off by the company I was working for, but regained employment elsewhere.  I was very concerned because I knew this citation could cost me my new job, as well as my career as a truck driver. Right away,  I contacted Musca Law for assistance. This firm maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the whole process, and stayed in constant contact with me. On July 25th 2019,  I got a call from the firm stating they were able to get the case dismissed in court!!  I cannot begin to explain how much this means to me! This dismissal saved my new job and my career!  If you have a serious traffic charge,  I strongly recommend this firm! They mean business!!

Compassionate knowledgeable and competent

As a concerned parent, I was at my wits end, desperately seeking a good attorney for my son for serious felony charges. I read their reviews, and I'm glad I chose the Musca Law Firm. I found them to be exactly as their reviews characterized them. All those involved were warm, compassionate, caring a...nd quite knowledgeable. The legal secretary sat with me for days while I waited for my son's release. She then went above and beyond to make sure I understood the legal process. The attorney was also very understanding, committed, and competent and was able to secure a bond for my son within a short time and get him out of jail. Overall, a very pleasant experience with the Musca Law Firm

Best Of The Best for DUI in Florida

If you are looking for the BEST legal representation for a DUI in Florida, you want Musca Law! I was charged with a DUI over the holidays and thought my family and career were ruined. I researched online and by word of mouth for who I could hire to obtain the best results. The attorneys of the firm a...ttorneys were great! They were friendly, professional and responded to my emails/calls promptly. Within 2 1/2 months, I received a call informing me we had won the DMV portion of my DUI case! My Florida license has now been fully reinstated. Now I can drive to work and spend more quality time with my family! Thank you John and Musca Law!
